  • Why on earth would a train operator care about timetables over basic ethics? They are human beings, not robots, you know?

    The controller and driver both get paid either way, and I’m sure the train driver is used getting home late on occasion - and I expect they get overtime pay, so he may well be laughing anyway.

    And the controller, or whatever they’re called, will just be seeing it as a PR issue. The slight lost money on the refunds (that passengers actually bother to put through) is easily worth the good PR.

    Edit: Missed random words, impatient brain running too fast for fingers.


  • Oh, I don’t know… the Internet spreads them faster, but sex has been around a tad longer. I’d expect most of these terms existed from before the internet even existed, or at least parallel to it.

    The one random one that just looked up, Dirty Sanchez, originated from the porn industry. Shock horror lol

    I think they mostly supposed to be fun/funny though, and not to be taken so seriously!
